$A$ beaker of radius $r$ is filled with water (refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$) up to a height $H$ as shown in the figure. The beaker is kept on a horizontal table rotating with angular speed $\omega$. This makes the water surface curved so that the difference in the height of the water level at the center and at the circumference of the beaker is $h$ $(h \ll H, h \ll r)$,as shown in the figure. Take this surface to be approximately spherical with a radius of curvature $R$. Which of the following is/are correct? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)
$(A)$ $R=\frac{h^2+r^2}{2 h}$
$(B)$ $R=\frac{r^2}{2 h}$
$(C)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{4}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{4 g}\right)^{-1}$
$(D)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{2}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{2 g}\right)^{-1}$

Which of the following form$(s)$ a virtual and erect image for all positions of the object?

$A$ point object is placed at a distance of $60\, cm$ from a convex lens of focal length $30\, cm$. If a plane mirror is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of the lens at a distance of $40\, cm$ from it,the final image is formed at a distance of:

$A$ plano-convex lens is made of a material of refractive index $n$. When a small object is placed $30 \ cm$ away in front of the curved surface of the lens,an image of double the size of the object is produced. Due to reflection from the curved surface of the lens,another faint image is observed at a distance of $10 \ cm$ away from the lens. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) true?
$(A)$ The refractive index of the lens is $2.5$
$(B)$ The radius of curvature of the convex surface is $45 \ cm$
$(C)$ The faint image is erect and real
$(D)$ The focal length of the lens is $20 \ cm$

$A$ horizontal parallel beam of light passes through a vertical convex lens of focal length $20 \,cm$ and is then reflected by a tilted plane mirror,so that it converges to a point $I$. The distance $P I$ is $10 \,cm$. $M$ is a point at which the axis of the lens intersects the mirror. The distance $P M$ is $10 \,cm$. The angle which the mirror makes with the horizontal is (in $^{\circ}$)

$A$ student measures the focal length of a convex lens by obtaining an image of an object pin at a distance '$v$' from the lens,where the object pin is at a distance '$u$' from the lens. What will the graph between '$u$' and '$v$' look like?
